Foreword

I have no doubt that Divine Providence brought us together.

When Maria and I first met at a business briefing in January

1997, at the home of my former sister-in-law, somehow I just

knew we shared a common denominator.

First impressions definitely are lasting ones. Maria and I soon

became the best of friends and traveled together often on busi-

ness. What a formidable team we were — she, the “Beautiful

Brunette” and I, the “Blonde Bombshell.” Ha!

It was on one of our journeys to Detroit that the idea for this

book was born. We had exchanged stories of our own, along

with stories we had heard from our girlfriends, of some frustrat-

ing and disappointing behaviors and other strange quirks of men

we had all either dated, married or divorced. It seemed as

though our friends had experienced many of the same trials and

tribulations that we had.

In the middle of rush-hour traffic on Interstate 75, I said, “You

know, Maria, we should write a book.” I quickly glanced her way

and could already see the wheels spinning in her head. “Let’s do

it!” she said.

To our amazement and delight, the book evolved from a few

short quips and anecdotal excerpts into the finished product you

are now holding in your hands. Through synchronicity and at the

suggestion of a dear friend, we connected with our editor, Katina

Jones of Chance Press, and our printer, upublish.com. Katina took

the notes of our book from an embryonic idea into organized,

polished, humorous reality. She quickly embraced the tongue-in-

cheek, wry humor that prevails throughout this book, recognizing

the “girlfriend-to-girlfriend” bond and support this book offers.

We were ecstatic! Finally, Disenchanted Evenings (which is the flip

side of “Some Enchanted Evening,” to be sure) was born. We are

delighted to share the dating and mating disasters that naturally

occur when you’ve accidentally chosen a frog and not a prince.

We would especially like to acknowledge and thank our friends

for their input and loving support of this project. Without your

disaster stories, jokes, tips and anecdotes, this survival guide

would not have been possible.

I suppose we should also acknowledge the would-be princes

we’ve known to be frogs at heart. It is because of your antics and

unbelievable behavior that this book even entered our minds.

Finally, we hope that as you read the following pages that you

come to the same realization that we did: Men truly are from

Mars. May the essence of our Sisterhood serve to sustain us all

as we experience our wild ride on this beautiful, otherwise

serene planet of Venus.
